Had a really lovely Christmas and New Year.It was a wee bit different this year,in that we all went to Claire and Paul's house for Christmas dinner.Everyone had a lovely time , and the meal was terrific ! Chloe was the centre of attention, as usual!

It's January 21st 2016 , and I have had nearly two weeks of my latest treatment regime. I get connected up to the chemo pump on a Monday and that gets changed every Monday for five weeks.I attend the Beatson every week day for radiotherapy.The chemo is 5fu,which I have had several times in the past.The radiotherapy machine is called a Linear Accelerator -Impressive piece of kit.I just lie on the table and let it do its' work.The radiographers are very thorough,and check your details and check that you are always in the correct position for treatment. So far,I am feeling well,and not suffering any nasty effects.I might not suffer any at all-everyone is different!.
I am getting on with life as normal.Bill and I went to see the new Star Wars movie-it was very good-a few hours of escapism.We also went, along with Rosie, to see the Chieftains ,who were performing in the annual Celtic Connections Festival in Glasgow.It was a great concert,especially as a couple of their guests were Eddi Reader and Kris Kristofferson.Great night, although it was a bit surreal hearing Kristofferson singing "Me and Bobby McGee", accompanied by the Chieftains and the Glasgow Gaelic choir
